Another Update Today

Dad was losing so much blood that they took him into surgery this evening. Several areas high up in the nose were found bleeding at the rate of 1T per minute. Those areas were cauterized in order to stop the bleeding.

Other concerns were also found so he has gone in for another CT scan. We will hopefully know more tomorrow from the results of the CT scan.

Dad is being kept sedated and is on the ventilator again. He will be kept that way until at least Tuesday morning.

We do thank the Lord that Dad came through the surgery. Please continue to pray.


Addendum: The CT scan did not show enough so Dad will be going in first thing in the morning for another angiogram.
